Abstract

In this article we demonstrate the isoperimetric inequality arising in exactly solvable structural optimization problem of stability under torque load. The Greenhill problem describes the forming of a loop in an elastic bar under torsion. The inequality for infinite rod with periodical cross-section with two types of supports is rigorously verified. The optimal shape of the twisted rod is constant along its length and the optimal shape of cross-section is the equilateral triangle. The technique to demonstrate of isoperimetric inequalities exploits the variational method and the Holder inequality.
